GENERAL DESCRIPTION
amplifiers together provide 69.5 dB of gain control. A precision
control circuit sets the Linear-in-dB RF gain response to the gain
control voltage.
The AD8347 is a broadband Direct Quadrature Demodulator
with RF and baseband Automatic Gain Control (AGC) amplifiers.
It is suitable for use in many communications receivers,
performing Quadrature demodulation directly to baseband
frequencies. The input frequency range is 800 MHz to 2.7 GHz.
The outputs can be connected directly to popular A-to-D converters
such as the AD9201 and AD9283.
Baseband level detectors are included for use in an AGC loop to
maintain the output level. The demodulator dc offsets are
minimized by an internal loop, whose time constant is controlled
by external capacitor values. The offset control can also be
overridden by forcing an external voltage at the offset nulling pins.
The RF input signal goes through two stages of variable gain
amplifiers prior to two Gilbert-cell Mixers. The LO quadrature
phase splitter employs polyphase filters to achieve high quadra-
ture accuracy and amplitude balance over the entire operating
frequency range. Separate I & Q channel variable-gain amplifiers
follow the baseband outputs of the mixers. The RF and baseband
The baseband variable gain amplifier outputs are brought off-chip
for filtering before final amplification. By inserting a channel
selection filter before each output amplifier high-level out-of-
channel interferers can be eliminated. Additional internal circuitry
also allows the user to set the dc common-mode level at the
baseband outputs.
